Read the poem at left. 
(This is one poem that would be very difficult to read aloud.)
  1. What four words is it made up of? 
  2. Why is it important that he used lower-case l's, rather than capital L's?
  3. Why does he "mix up" the words, and arrange them the way he does? What's he trying to represent?
  4. Make up a title for this poem that does not start with the letter L.
